Celestia turn to Twilight, giving Twilight a sad smile. “Twilight, before I continue, I must ask you to summon your friends here.”

“Uh...Princess, its 3 in the morning.” Twilight said quietly. Celestia gave small sheepish smile at this comment.

“So it is. But this matter is grave. If what BookKeeper said is true, then this is only the beginning of a very long and dark time.” Celestia said to her.

“How dark.” a small voice echoed out, everyone turn to see Spike at the top of the stairs, looking fearfully at Discord.

“Trust me squirt.” Discord said quietly, snapping his finger several times with various objects appearing and disappearing. “SCP-173 is pretty low on the totem pole, but it can still kill an entire town within several hours. It only gets darker the higher you go.”

“How do you know?” Twilight asked quietly.

“Tried to kill me.” Discord growled, his lion claws extending by his answered. “It failed, but it was close.” Twilight took a step away from Discord, her eyes widening at his statement.

“Twilight, please gathered your friends.” Celestia asked again. “I don't wish to tell this story more than once.”

“Of course Princess. Spike, lets go!” Twilight's horn flashed and Spike floated down onto Twilight's back. “Lets give them some privacy.” Twilight trotted out the front door and closed the door behind her.

The was a moment of awkward silence between Celestia, Luna, and Discord. Discord coughed and turn to Luna. “So....how have you been Lulu.”

Luna hissed at him, her wings flaring from her back. “My name is Luna.” Luna hissed at him, Celestia's ears flatten at this.

“Luna....please.” Celestia pleaded, but was ignored.

“No Big Sister!” Luna stomped up to Discord, “This trickery has gone on long enough! Does thou not remember the pain and suffering our people suffered under his rule.”

Discord growled at her. “I liked you when all you could do was babble and do snot bubbles. Like Teach said, I wasn't in control of myself.”

“So says your treacherous ally!” Luna's horn glowed, pointing at Discord. “You do nothing but lie, cheat, and hurt ponies everywhere you go!”

“Enough!” Celestia said, her voice echoing through out the room. “Or should I start blaming you for the events that happen a thousand years ago!”

“I...Big Sister I wasn't in control-” Luna started, but Celestia talked over her.

“Exactly. You were not in control. The same happen to Discord. So I suggest, little sister, that you calm yourself.” Celestia closed her eyes, taking a deep breath before opening them. Luna quietly moved away from them, sitting in the corner of the library, feeling ashamed of herself. “Discord, please. How are you feeling?”

“Like I lost several thousand years of my life.” Discord muttered. “How do you think I feel?”

“Discord....” Celestia looked at him with pity.

“All these little ponies will look at me like some sort of deranged monster.” Discord frown, looking out the window to see the dark sky. “And frankly I wouldn't blame them.”

“Its not your fault Discord.” Celestia tried to argue, but knew it failed when Discord rounded back to her.

“Is it? I lost control of my chaos magic, which Teach always warned me will happen if I am not careful.” Discord leaned against the wall and slowly slide down the wall. “And I ended up hurting you.”

“I have already forgiven you.” Celestia said quietly.

“Its not enough.” Discord mumbled to himself.

“Stand.” Celestia asked him. “Please.” She added when he refused to move. Discord sighed before getting to his feet. She gave him a sad smile before leaning into him. “I missed you.”

“Wish I could say the same.” Discord said to her. “All I remember was walking around, then next moment, Teach is yelling at me.” Discord sighed, moving away from Celestia, stretching his arms over his head. “God....it feels so weird.”

“What does?” Celestia asked.

“Feeling old. I mean, when we first started out in the world, we were young pups. Practically teenagers going on to adulthood. Its like going to sleep as a 10 year old and waking up in your body after it aged 50 years in a single night.” Celestia felt even worse, Discord now had to get use to a stranger's body.

“I'm-”

“Stop Celly.” Discord chuckled, shaking his head at Celestia, “You keep apologizing for something you had no control over. I mean you have to-*Crash*” The window from the living area exploded, a blur of colors shooting straight at Discord's head.

“Have a hoofsandwhich-OOF!” Discord backhand the screaming object, his magic covering his lion's paw, a rather bored look on his face. The rainbow color object slammed into the wall, revealing a blue pegasus. Discord snapped his fingers, and a slightly too small cage encased pony.

“Hmm.... I have to give it to the crazy me though.” Discord said out loud, “He did take care of my body. A little on flimsy side though. I need to work out again.”

“Rainbow!” Twilight ran in, 4 other ponies ran in behind her. All of them gasped and took several aggressive stances....well, 3 of them did. One just sort jumped behind a potted planet and hid herself.

Discord winced and squinted his eyes at the colorful ponies. “Celly, why are all your subjects such eyes blinding bright ponies?”

Celestia simply looked away, a blush on her face. “I don't know, they just started being born that way. At first it was a simply a brighter coats, then it changed to a large variety of colors.”

“I see.” Discord said.

“Discord! Let Rainbow out!” Twilight's horn glowed, but was unable to free her friend.

“Really....her name is Rainbow?” Discord said, then turn to the others. “Let me guess....Pinkie.” Pointing straight at the Pinkie Pie.

“Uh...duh?” Pinkie Pie said, she frown at him. “Don't tell me you forgot!? You were a big meanie-weenie-feeny to us!”

Discord frown at her. “Sorry, never met you lot before in my life.” Pinkie's jaw drop to the floor in stun surprise, she wasn't alone as the rest of the ponies, sans Twilight, stared at Discord as well.

“My little ponies....please.” Celestia stood next to Discord. “Settle down.”

“Settle down!? Why in the sam hill do we need to settle down! Discord is standing right next to ya, Princess!” Applejack stated, glaring at the Discord.

“Girls, please.” Twilight's horn flashed and she appeared between the two groups. “The Princess will explain to us....believe me, I am just as confused as the rest of you.”

“Ah got my eye on you.” Applejack growled at Discord. Discord only rolled his eyes, unafraid of the small pony.

“Come back to me when you are at least Little Lulu size.” Discord muttered.

“My name is Luna!” Luna growled from her corner.

“Someone get me out of here!” Rainbow cried out, causing everyone to turn to her.

“Fine, fine!” Discord muttered, snapping his finger, releasing Rainbow from her cage. “The moment you start trouble, I am putting you back in!”

Rainbow took flight, sticking her tongue at Discord. His response was to raise his eagle claw and in a threatening matter, showing that he was about to snap his fingers. “Don't make me take that away.” he warned her. Rainbow's tongue disappeared back into her mouth in a flash.

“Please, everypony, sit.” Celestia asked them. Discord mouthed the words 'everypony' in confusion. “There is much to tell you, and this may take awhile.”

“Are you going to tell us what is going on, Princess?” Twilight asked. Celestia gave Twilight a sad smile.

“Yes, my faithful student. Keep in mind that the events that I am about to show you is what I have seen, or memories that were given freely to me.” Celestia's horn glowed and an image appeared before everyone. “Perhaps the best place to start is when my mother and Master Xing met for the first time.”

Cliffy!

I am so clever.
